Festive Collection Day Five 3pm


Hello there my crafty friends! This post will be showcasing the Christmas Rose die set and the Holly Branch set.   Last year, I had quite a few requests for a Christmas Rose, so I took them to heart and this is what I came up with!  It is a lovely floral addition for your cards and a really pretty alternative to poinsettias too.  A quick note too, there is a matching stamp set for it as well, but the sample shown here is just using the die.  The Holly Branch has been making itself known on many of the previous samples shown, so you can see it is a real "go to" set for the festive season.  I would love to know what you think of these, leave me a comment.  The final blog launch post will be up at 6pm today!  All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue,
This is definitely one of my favorites that you have done in this collection. As soon as I saw the Christmas Rose die I knew I had to have it and seeing this card only further confirmed it.

Hello Sue, such a pretty card, the Christmas rose die set looks to be very versatile, and the holly would be great with many of the festive dies. Love the little berries. Bx

Perfect finishing touches - I can see the Christmas Rose will be a lovely little embellishment all year round and of course the holly is the best accompaniment to your previous ivy die, especially when making wreaths...

I love this card and the dies Sue, I've always had a soft spot for the Christmas rose. I guess that means I will be upsetting my bank manager soon! :)

Hi Sue
this is such a pretty card. The rose die is great and could be used any occasion with different leaves to finish off. Love the red sparkle behind the borders too.

I am really liking this Christmas Rose and leaves. Such a nice change of flower shape instead of pointed petals. I also like the berries on the leaf stems. Looking forward to using this set of dies on my creations!

Meg Owen said...

Hi Sue,
I love the Hellebore or Christmas Rose.
I have Hellebores out in my garden nearly all year and they come in so many lovely colours, deep plummy red, yellow and some with speckled petals, so they don't have to be used on just Christmas cards.

Love and hugs and good luck to everyone for the draws.

Hello Sue

I am a little late catching up on some of the launch blogs. My goodness, the Christmas rose is stunning. I adore the card you have created. The festive holly die is beautiful also.

Best regards.
